I feel comfortable in declaring that we have achieved that most elusive state called 3 Cat Harmony. Things finally seem to have simmered down between my 2 kitties and our newest addition Sparky.
Sparky's story is a very sad one. We can only guess at his age, which is probably between 7 and 10 years old, but we know for sure that he's been abandoned at least 3 times. After his latest abandonment, Sparky was left in a cruel Kitty Limbo: his previous caretaker hadn't bothered to take him to the county shelter, and he was left with no home, food source, or prospects for either.
Enter bleeding-hearts Laura and Evan. (Suckers.) When we brought Sparky home with us, he was emaciated and had a large weeping abscess on his side. Fleas and ear mites were the least of his problems. Fast forward 4.5 months, and Sparky is healthy, happy, gaining weight, and driving us nuts the way only a talkative cat can. And all the cats are getting along now. (At least mostly.)
